    of course all this whining is completely pointless as they always eventually release the movies individually anyway. and since this is coming from the people behind star wars, i wouldnt be surprised to see it all released on the same day. but really, some of you will refuse to buy a collection containing a good 11hrs or more of content simply to avoid 2 of them?

    kids.... :P
    Different situation. None of the Star Wars films were previously released on blu-ray and at least there was a choice to skip the crappy prequels. I highly doubt the Indy movies will be available individually at the same time as the release of the complete collection.

    Actually, it's probably those "kids" you are referring to that would want all 4 movies, and the adults who grew up with Indiana Jones that only care about the first 3.

    Huh... I thought I would never be surprised by internet hating again, but people complaining about the fourth film simply being there just seems silly.

    It's a part of the series... they aren't going to exclude it because some people don't like it.

    Personally, I held off on buying the fourth film, because I knew this would come eventually... I'm glad this great film series is finally getting a Blu-Ray release! And anything less than a 4.0 PQ score for each movie will be a disappointment for me.

    $75 on sale?! That's a little steep isn't it? Better be loaded with new stuff.

    I can't help it. The stench of Indy 4 is too much to bare. It won't be stinking up my movie collection. I'll wait for individual releases. There are many of us that were holding onto the false hope that Paramount might be generous and give us a trilogy set. Silly us!

    "...and a few new surprises."

    I'll be buying this set as long as it doesn't have Indy's whip replaced with a walkie-talkie, or have the big Arab dude's sword replaced with a gun and have him shoot first.

    Although I bought Indy 4 already, I'll buy this set IF the price is right AND the transfers are up to par. Reselling my copy solves having two versions. Aside from that, I'm stoked about the news...yes!

    Haha. I knew what I was getting into when I bought it (on the cheap, too). The plot is weak and the action weaker, but I wanted to see how the filmmakers would hand over the torch to the young Indy-in-the-making. At least the PQ/AQ held up to hi-def standards. Here's hoping the first 3 movies hold up as well (crossing my fingers).

    I'd watch the old ones in 480p versus the new one in 1080p LOL

    Well pretty soon, we can all watch the old ones in 1080p too.

    Bring on the complete collection, 4th movie be damned!

    Yeah thats a long bit you'll be waiting for. What in the history of home video makes you think they would put out a set with just the 1st three movies? ESPECIALLY with the single minded blockheads behind it who are Lucas and Spielberg. Your only hope is seperate releases(and a custom box perhaps), a three film Indy set will never be produced.

    And btw, I recently rewatched Crystal Skull a few weeks ago with the idea that it's tonally not any different than the 1st three, and guess what.. it isn't, we've just outgrown the flights of fancy. Surviving a nuclear blast in a lead lined fridge is ludacris, but so is surviving a thousand foot jump from a crashing airplane in an inflatable raft, people being melted by the power of god, or meeting a centuries old knight in a cave.

    Personally I can't wait for the set, it will be a day one purchase for me.

    EDIT: before anyone points it out. I just remembered Fox put out The Omen set on DVD including the awful 4th TV film which was really a bastardized remake of the original. And they mercifully didn't include it in the Blu Ray set, but the circumstances are a bit different here(yet still they included the actual remake lol).

    Oddly, $50 is my top end for this set as well.
